The Nichirei Higashiginza Building is located on the northwest side of Kachidokibashi.

There is a Nichirei corner on the first floor of the building.

From the main street, it is difficult to see how it is sold, but as soon as you enter the building, you can see it.

We have Nichirei Foods products for sale to employees, but the general public can also buy them.

Except for high-quality Western food, it can be purchased at a 20% discount on the list price.

It's also fun to reserve it and add one item to the dinner menu.

It's a very abundant assortment, so I think it's a good idea to stop by after asking for Time Dome Akashi and Namishi Inari.

※From June 2009, there is also a diabetic diet as a "calorie navigator" series.

※Cookies at Hotel Okura and the Imperial Hotel are 5% to 10% discount.

※There is also a frozen bread in Europe.

July 12, 13, 14, Tsukishima Kusa City

[Yurikamome] July 15, 2009 09:30

I went to Tsukishima Kusa City, which is full of downtown atmosphere.

Stalls are lined up in the shopping street of Nishinaka-dori. In the past, they sold tray items such as horoku, ogara, and broom, but now they are shooting popcorn drawing cracker chocolate banana yakitori flash servber

Takoyaki yakisoba hanger light shaved ice beer wine, etc.

The broom was big and beautiful in a flower shop.

In the past, there was goldfish scooping, but now the children are scooping plastic things that change it.

 

I was doing Bon Odori at a corner of the site of the Eye Mark Tower.

Elementary school students worked hard on the stage to hit the Gojin Taiko and it was a small circle, but it seemed fun. 

The girl's costume was also festive and cool.

After the stalls, there were a lot of big brooms lined up in the flower shop's store, and many people bought them while deciding.

Bon Odori on Tsukuda Island July 13, 14, 15

[Yurikamome] July 15, 2009 09:30

Mr. Tsukuda Buddhist prayer dance unrelated Buddha. JPG

  Before dancing the Nenbutsu dance, the leader instructed him to pray to the unrelated Buddha.     

 

Around the beginning of July, when I went to buy Tsukudani, I asked, "Buddhist prayer dance's Bon Odori is on 13th, 14th, 15th ..." I came.

The children's dance from 6 to 8 in the evening.

It seems that the dance of adults is from 8 to 9:30.

When Nishi Honganji Temple (Tsukiji Honganji Temple) disappeared due to the great fire of the Meiryaku era, fishermen from Tsukuda, who were monks, reclaimed the land of Tsukiji and rebuilt the main hall in 1680 (1680).

This is the beginning of Bon Odori.

Before each dance, we first pray to the unrelated Buddha. In the past, the burning body flowed to the beach of Tsukuda Island from the upstream in the great fire of the Meiryaku era, and fishermen (Tsukuda townspeople) buried it as unrelated Buddhas. We start dancing after giving thanks for protecting Tsukuda Island.

In the adult dance from 8 o'clock, Buddhist prayer dance was advancing, singing with a unique moderation, with a microphone in his left hand and a bee in his right hand.

I realized that Bon Odori on Tsukuda Island is designated as an intangible ethnic cultural property of Tokyo.

Surprisingly, anyone could participate in this dance, and one of the circles invited me to say, "If you follow me later, you can dance ...."

A salaryman on his way home from work was dancing in a circle in a suit.

It was a fun night time in downtown, blowing in the night breeze.

Teppozu Inari Shrine

Tepposu Inari Shrine. JPG

Since July 1st was a mountain opening, I went to Fujizuka at Tepposu Inari Shrine.

Fujizuka, built by Fujiko (a lecture by Mount Fuji worshipers), is now only one in Chuo-ku. It is 18m high made by ordering lava or lava pieces from Mount Fuji.

Thirty monuments about Fujiko are buried.

I came with a baby boomer friend two months ago, and they went up to Teppen while at a time, but I couldn't climb yesterday too.

I thought it was more crowded, but it was crowded with visitors on June 30 to pay more than Fujizuka.

       June 30 I will purify myself by doing exorcism for half a year from January 1.

     December 31 I will purify myself by doing exorcism for one year from January 1.

     I'll go through Chinowa in the figure eight from the left side to get rid of it.

Sailing ship CUAUHTEMOC passenger ship COSTA CLASSICA

[Yurikamome] July 1, 2009 12:00

I would like to mention a memorable ship that entered and departed Harumi Wharf in June.

Nippon Maru also entered the port on the 25th, 26th and 28th, but most importantly, my memory was Mexican sailing ships and Italian luxury cruise ships.

CUAUHTEMOC 1,153 tons Mexico Naval sailing ship

This is a photo of the crew down from the yard.

 

Entering port at 13:30 on June 6      Departing at 14:00 on June 11

Although it is a sailing ship, it is not possible to sail with a sail because of the heavy traffic in Tokyo Port.

However, in the yard where the sails were dropped when entering the port, there are so many occupants from the upper row to the lower row, 3 people, 4 people, 5 people ... side by side, so much that it becomes the lower row .

It was raining lightly, so the crew standing in the yard wore yellow rain feathers, but the white ship looked beautiful.

This sailing ship left Yokohama Port in the morning, but saw off the sailing ship in Yokohama and met a woman welcoming this sailing ship again at Harumi Wharf.

The day of departure at 14:00 on June 11 was fine.

The yard was lined with crews in white uniforms, shining beautifully in the blue sky, and departed for Onjuku (Chiba).

In 1609, when a Mexican ship was distressed in the waters near Onjuku, fishermen on the beach and Ama divers were rescued and castle owner Otaki sent him to Mexico by Japanese ship.

 

COSTA CLASSICA      52,926 tons Italian ship liner

Entering at 8:00 on June 11 at 14:00 on June 12    12:00 on June 28 Departure at 19:00 on June 29

The ship came from Nagasaki on the 11th, anchored at Harumi Wharf, departed for Kobe on the 12th, anchored at Harumi Wharf on the 28th, and left Japan via Nagasaki on the 29th.

The ships berthed on the night of the 11th and the night of the 28th were very beautiful and decorated the night sky of Chuo-ku.

At 19 o'clock on the 29th, he sounded a whistle and slowly left the quay, took the course to the right and turned left in front of the Rainbow Bridge and passed straight through the Rainbow Bridge and disappeared .

The jewelry box seemed to be small and disappearing.
